No LJDC Meeting in July
Due to the California Democratic Party’s July 16-18 Executive Board Meeting, which is attended by many of the LJDC members who sit on CDP State Committees, there will not be a monthly meeting in July.  LJDC members are encouraged to attend the July 16-18 CDP Executive Board meeting in San Jose.

August Meeting - the 3rd Sunday - August 15

The annual fundraiser event will be held on August 15 at Derek and Nancy Casady’s home in La Jolla. 8412 Sugarman Dr. La Jolla 92037.

Hopefully, our program speaker will be the Honorable Lori Saldana, State Assemblyperson, representative of the 76th Administrative District and Assistant Majority Whip.  Availability depends on the successful passage of the California State budget.

LA JOLLA DEMOCRATIC CLUB 2010 MEMBERSHIP

It is imperative that La Jolla Democratic Club members renew their club membership and continue to support our local effort to educate the community, support progressive issues, and elect strong Democratic candidates during the 2010 election year.

With your help, the work of many volunteers in our 2008 La Jolla Campaign Headquarters on Silverado Street, and the successful election of 2008, La Jolla turned officially “Blue.” We want to maintain our momentum. Sadly however, during 2009, we learned that meaningful change might not come from the top. We need to build a strong grassroots movement that will push for the change we voted for in 2008 and make our voices heard.

Please renew your membership for the 2010 year by completing the membership form and inviting a neighbor or a friend to join. Your membership and active participation does make a difference. Let’s keep La Jolla BLUE!

Pay your 2010 dues now to make a difference...
